Molecular simulation of interfacial systems: From mechanical properties of liposomes to crystal nucleation in the bulk, near surfaces and in confinement Location: 108 Snell Engineering Center Abstract: I will give an overview of our recent molecular simulation studies of several interfacial systems of interest. In the first part of my talk, I will describe our […]
Small But Large: Transforming Drug Delivery with Nanoparticle Formulations Location: 108 Snell Engineering Center Abstract: This seminar will provide an in-depth exploration of drug nanoparticle formulations, highlighting the principles, advantages, and commercial applications of nanotechnology in drug delivery systems. The discovery of resonant acoustic milling as a new technology for the preparation of drug nanoparticles […]
Insights into the fate of precursors and novel PFAS using organofluorine mass budgets across diverse media Location: 108 Snell Engineering Center Abstract: Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a diverse family of highly fluorinated and persistent anthropogenic chemicals first synthesized in the 1940s that are not known to degrade under natural conditions. They are broadly […]
Seminar Title: Fast-Track Materials Discovery Beyond Equilibrium for Energy and Sustainability Location: Egan Center 306 Abstract: The development of stable multicomponent materials remains a central challenge in inorganic chemistry and chemical engineering. In systems containing multiple elements, positive mixing enthalpy, size and valence mismatch, and structural incompatibility tend to drive phase separation, especially under equilibrium […]
